What's going on?" Stelle leaned over, ready to see what the fuss was about. March 7th read the headline word by word: "Penacony has completely lifted the blockade on 'Honkai: Star Rail' and is offering benefits to all players heading to Penacony..." Stelle quickly pulled out her phone. She intended to search for related information. To verify its authenticity. However. She didn't need to search. The news had already climbed to the top of the trending topics! As she looked through the comments from various netizens. Stelle's expression shifted from surprise. To gradually becoming delighted. And finally, it turned into mania! "According to the comments, Penacony's Dreamscape—the Golden Hour—is releasing a lot of 'Star Rail' recharge vouchers! There are also big and small monthly cards, and as long as you grab them, you can exchange them unconditionally with the Family!" March 7th also saw the related comments. She exclaimed in disbelief, "Penacony is now the complete opposite of what it used to be! They're playing 'Sleepless Night' everywhere, as if it's become the theme song..." "Players from all regions are deciding to head to Penacony!" "Let's go too!" "Coincidentally, the Express received an invitation from the Family earlier, so we can vacation there while playing games. How perfect!" Seeing Stelle and March 7th so excited, Old Yang reminded them, "Based on the information we have so far, aside from us, there are other unknown forces heading to Penacony this time." "For example, the purple-haired woman who appeared in 'Sleepless Night,' the Stellaron Hunter: Sam..." "And the envoy from the company, Aventurine, one of the Ten Stonehearts," Himeko added. "Hmm... Although we're guests, we can't approach this entirely with a vacation mindset." March 7th remained optimistic. She said, "From the content in the 'Sleepless Night' video, it seems like we won't encounter any major crises. It's probably more about watching these people scheme against each other." "For that thing... the Watchmaker's legacy?" "But now that these people have been exposed in the storyline, from the shadows to the light, I doubt they'll dare to make any big moves, right?" "I think this storyline will definitely be sunny, lighthearted, and enjoyable~" "Ding dong—" A notification sound came from the phone. March 7th instinctively glanced at it. She paused. Unsure. She looked again! [Yu Ling: 'Honkai: Star Rail' Version 2.0 is now live! Embark on your Trailblaze journey to the land of dreams, Penacony!] "Whoa..." "So fast!" ... Penacony. Hotel Lobby. Guinaifen had just arrived and was immediately awestruck by the grandeur of The Reverie Hotel. "Tsk tsk tsk..." "Dear family in the livestream, Little Gui is currently at Penacony, in the Hotel Lobby of The Reverie." "Just look at this decor!" "Look at this grand entrance!" "Look at the speed bumps!" "Look at the ad screens!" However. Before Little Gui could officially step into the lobby area. Several men in suits and sunglasses spotted her immediately! It seemed they had been waiting there for quite some time. They quickly jogged over! Guinaifen was startled. "Didn't they say the family had already lifted the blockade on Star Rail? How come I'm being targeted the moment I arrived…" "Or is it that… live streaming isn't allowed here?" … "Penacony live stream is about to end before it even begins…" "I was just about to head to Penacony, and Little Gui is taking the fall for me." "Run, Little Gui! If the family catches you, they'll assimilate you into their ranks!" "Don't you know you're a universe-level entertainment streamer now?" "There are bad people among the crowd!" … These family members approached Guinaifen. But instead of the expected confrontation or standoff. The woman leading them took off her sunglasses, smiling warmly, "Hahaha… You must be the universe-famous streamer, Miss Little Gui, right?" "Welcome to Penacony!" The family members around her immediately chimed in unison, "Welcome! A warm welcome!" Guinaifen was stunned. What's going on with these people! The woman continued, "We're your fans! We feel restless if we don't watch your streams for a day." "Finally, we get to meet you in person!" "You're even more beautiful than in the videos!" The exaggerated compliments didn't lure Little Gui into a sweet trap. Instead, she immediately became cautious. "Wait, wait!" "What exactly do you want?" "We're members of the Iris Family, and we'd like to collaborate with you on some streaming-related matters…" "Simply put, we'd like you to help promote us, maybe run an ad or something…" "If you're willing, we've already booked a luxurious VIP room for you. We won't interfere with your activities, just mention our Iris Family in your streams…" Guinaifen glanced at the contract and related documents the woman handed over. Identification, business permits, and so on… Confirming there were no traps. She nodded slightly. "This looks pretty good. I don't see a reason to refuse." "Great!" "Then our collaboration is settled." "By the way, Miss Guinaifen, could you give us an autograph?" Guinaifen chuckled. So this is what they were after? "No problem." Just as she was about to sign. Suddenly. Little Gui's phone dinged. At the same time. The Iris Family members also received message notifications or vibrations. Everyone's expressions changed! This sense of déjà vu. Could it be… Before they could check. From the hotel lobby. A wave of excited voices erupted! Immediately. All the tourists in the area stood up in unison! Some even shouted in excitement! "It's here, it's here!" "Yu Ling has updated!" "Version 2.0 is coming!" "Do you know how long I've been waiting for this moment?!" "Yu Ling, how did you know I got paid today!" Guinaifen saw the notification. And was equally shocked! The version update! It's actually today? As soon as Penacony lifted the ban on Honkai: Star Rail, Lin Yu immediately released a major new update! Was this a coincidence? It definitely couldn't be a coincidence! "Is Yu Ling trying to let all players in Penacony experience the new version's storyline firsthand?!" "Wuwu… Yu Ling, you too!" "Why not release a preview? It's always so sudden!" "If I'd known, I would've stayed on Xianzhou and not come here!" Hearing Guinaifen's sigh, the woman from the Iris Family quickly reassured her, "Don't worry about the livestream, Miss Guinaifen!" "The room we've reserved for you has already taken this into account." "It's equipped with professional livestreaming equipment." "You can still be the first to start the Honkai: Star Rail new storyline livestream!" "By the way, we're also looking forward to it." Guinaifen exclaimed in delight, "You've prepared quite thoroughly!" "Is this the weight of the family's influence?" "Then what are we waiting for? Little Gui can't wait to experience the brand-new storyline!" "Being in Penacony while experiencing Penacony in the game… the immersion this time is off the charts!"
